Boxing Day Memories

The upcoming Test match between Australia and India not only kicks off what's sure to be a great series between two rivals, but also marks one of the highlights of the cricketing calendar, the Boxing Day Test.

So, in honour of this wonderful event, I thought it might be appropriate for CW to share their favourite Boxing Day memories.

Haha. How ******** did Strauss look trying to play that shot? How I'll (quite rightly) always remember him.

I actually can't remember the delivery (all I can picture when I try and remember it is Shane Warne running around in celebration) but he surely can't have looked more ******** than he did in the 2nd (?) Test in 2005 when he tried to pad one away.

Tbf I think the ball he tried to pad away was shown by Hawkeye to be missing the stumps. I can't blame him for misjudging it.

The one in Melbourne was more a lazy shot, played across a fullish leg break iirc

Only a bunch of convicts having been beaten 3-0 and gone 9 tests without a win and won just 1 in 11 against England could go into the home series saying they will win. England will win in Australia again this winter as they are a better side which they have shown this summer. 3-0 doesn't lie girls.

not Boxing day but my Boxing test memory is Aamer's spell on the 4th morning during Pakistan's last tour he ran in for a whole session clocking 150 Kmph consistently. What a bloody ****ing waster of a talent.

That one spun about five miles, tbf, it's rough to blame him for misjudging that one.

do you think people will be allowed to make violins?
who's going to make the violins?
